The summer of 2019 doesn’t seem all that long ago.
And in the grand scheme of things, it isn’t. In the NFL, however, three years is an eternity.
Look no farther than the Steelers, who report to training camp Tuesday, as an example.
The last time they were in Latrobe for training camp at Saint Vincent College, Randy Fichtner was the offensive coordinator. The defensive coordinator was Keith Butler. Kevin Colbert was the general manager. The quarterback was Ben Roethlisberger.
None of that group are still around as the Steelers return to Saint Vincent for the first time since that 2019 season after holding their past two camps at what was then known as Heinz Field.
